Hey Bay Area! Mark your calendars because Maker Faire is touching down in your town in less than a month! For two days, the festival will be showcasing fun, creative, DIY projects from makers around the world.

Pickup your tickets before May 9th for earlybird pricing and don't forget to pop by and say hello to our sister store at the Hand-Eye Supply booth!

There are three ways to get involved with this year's Maker Faire Bay Area:

• Although the deadline has passed for this year's Bay Area entries, you can enter your project and Maker Faire will consider it as a last-minute addition.
• Maker Faire has a new program for people that would like to volunteer their time and make an invaluable contribution to the success of Maker Faire. Get behind-the-scenes experience, and help make the Show happen! Learn more here.
• Plan to come as an attendee, enjoy the show and support the Maker movement by purchasing your tickets early (at an Earlybird Discount Rate!)
